Don't get mad--- get promoted
When it comes to succeeding at work, conventional wisdom says you should check your emotions
at the door. But Anne Kreamer, the author of the new book It's Always Personal, disagrees. "It
reduces people's ability to bring their best selves to their work," she says. ___1___ Here's how to
turn your emotions into opportunities.
___2___
How to get promoted: Engage in joint(联合的)problem solving.
Losing your temper at work is "universally uncool," say Kreamer. But opening your emotional
floodgates strategically can lead to solutions if both sides are willing to work together. ___3___
"The specific time and private space establishes boundaries so you have a greater chance of
achieving a constructive outcome and maintaining the relationship," Kreamer adds.
I feel: Afraid and anxious.
How to get promoted:
Improve planning skills.
___4___ Identify what's behind your fear and take specific action --- ask your manager for details
and take on some responsibilities. You'll calm down and do a better job. "No boss minds helping
an eager employee learn something new, but every boss hates having to deal with a bungled
(搞糟了的) project," says Kreamer.
I feel: Happy.
How to get promoted:
Increase creativity and productivity.
When you're in a positive mood, your brain activity actually shifts, says Kreamer. "Your focus
deepens, and your dopamine(多巴胺) levels increase. ___5___"
A.I feel: Angry.
B.I feel: like crying.
C.This helps you see things from a different perspective.
D.It's a signal that there's a problem that needs to be solved.
E.Are you clear about an assignment or underprepared for a meeting?
F.Instead, Kreamer suggests acting on your feelings can help you do a good job.
G.Rather than face the offender in the heat of the moment, schedule a one-on-one meeting.

     Don't go to Kauai. Go to any of the other Hawaiian Islands --- Maui, Lanai, the Big Island --- but
leave Kauai for us. The weather on Kauai is so unpredictable (不可预测的) that sometimes it rains
all day --- in fact, it's the second-wettest spot on the earth. Yes, there are giant double rainbows all
the time, and the sunlight through the clouds is magical. But if you are not interested in these, go
somewhere else. You just can't control the nature on Kauai, and who wants to surrender (屈服) to
the nature when you could be at a fine hotel, lying in a comfortable chair next to a swimming pool,
with food served upon request?
       So what if Kauai produces surf champions the way Texas produces cowboys?Most of its 300
white-sand beaches are unmarked. Unless you connect with the local people, the hidden spots are
hard to find. While Hanalei is the most beautiful town you've ever dreamed of, you can forget about
discos and clubs. Worse, it doesn't have one single four-star restaurant. What it does have is the
original drive-through places where you pass by a rambutan tree (红毛丹树), and pick a piece of fruit.
       Shopping in Kauai? Forget it --- unless you are interested in shell necklaces and beautifully carved
wood bowls. Kauai is not about pampering. It's about going natural and finding the nature within you.
It's a do-it-yourself place that offers walking along the coast, diving and swimming in the Pacific Ocean,
and lying on the beach.
    Don't go to Kauai unless you have a lot of time, because there's only one road, which can be slightly
dull. It winds through the beautiful scenery of waterfalls, rivers flowing into the ocean, and taro (芋头)
fields. You have no choice but to look at everything, because the speed limit is 35 m.p.h.
       If you're not interested in color, don't bother with Kauai, because that's what you get --- red roads,
blue oceans, and a hundred different shades of green. It's like diving on land. Many people on Kauai
believe that this is Lemuria --- a lost island in the Atlantic. Can you imagine? Those Hawaiians, surfers,
New Agars, and people who love nature and beauty and want a different quality of life --- what do they
know, anyway? Forget about it --- you're not going to like it. Go somewhere else. Leave Kauai for us.

plays there, became obsessed with (着迷于) the idea that I had to be a playwright, left Harvard, had
my plays rejected, and finally in the autumn of 1926, how, why, or in what manner I have never exactly

     Don't talk to me; I'm busy with my iPhone
     Riding a London subway, a person from China will notice one major difference: in London, people do
not look at each other. In fact, eye contact is avoided at all times. That's not rudeness-people are just too busy to bother looking.
     Busy doing what, you ask? Well, they're certainly not using the time for a moment of quiet reflection,
nor are they reading a book. New technology has replaced quiet habits. Today the only acceptable form
of book on the London underground is an e-book.
     Apple must earn a fortune from London commuters (乘车上下班的人). Since the launch of the
iPhone in 2007, over 40,000-yes, that's 40,000-"apps" (programs downloaded for the iPhone) have
been designed.
     Commuters love them because they are the perfect time-fillers. One "app", called iShoot, is a game
that features tanks. Another one, Tube Exits, tells passengers where to sit on the train to be closest to
the exit of their destination. ISteam clouds the iPhone screen when you breathe into the microphone. You
can then write in the " steam" on your phone screen.
     For those without an iPhone, another Apple product, the iPod, may be another choice. It's not just
teenagers who "plug in" to their music-iPods are a popular way to pass the time for all ages.
     And if games,  e-books and music aren't enough to keep you occupied. Then perhaps you would
prefer a film. The development of palm DVD technology means many commuters watch their favorite
TV show or film on the way to work. With all this entertainments, it's amazing that people still remember
to get off the train.
1. People in London do not make eye contact on the subway because they are busy___.
A. going to work
B. reading books
C. thinking private things
D. playing games, reading e-books, listening to music or watching films.
2. Those who like war games can download ___to their iPhones.
A. iShoot
B. Tube Exits
C. ISteam
D. iPod
3.The underlined word "occupied" in the last paragraph probably means____.
A. delighted
B. busy
C. amused
D. controlled
4.The article tells us that___.
A. London commuters are unfriendly to strangers
B. Apple has earned a lo of money from selling 40,000 iPhones
C. technology is changing the way London commuters spend their traveling time.
D. with all the new time-fillers, London commuters often forget to get off the train.
